As we get deeper into the proofs I have been able to get a better handle on how to do them. Currently my biggest issue has just been figuring out what direction to go with it, but once I get that it seems to be a breeze. Now on to the test, although the test was in no way what I expected, I think I was able to do pretty well on it. While studying I felt as if I had a really good grip on the material doing practice problems and what not, however, once I looked at the test it seemed a bit more of a challenge than expected. After looking at the solutions to the test, though, I gained a bit more confidence in my work. Now that there have been a couple big grades I am interested to see how I have done in order to get a better idea as to where I stand, other than the quizes. Until then I will enjoy my break from studying until the next clump of grades.

The past month has been filled with small struggles every week in an attempt to get a good grasp on the concepts taught. Thankfully, however, it has seemed that at the end of every week I have been able to get past these issues and do well enough to be able to say I have a pretty good understanding of what we have been taught so far. Now it seems that the challenge has become a little bit more difficult as we delve into full proofs. So far I have been able to do as well as I have in the course due to tutorials and practice problems, but now, with the new material, it feels like its going to take more than that in order to succeed. Hopefully I will be able to get a grasp on everything before the test as I wish to do well on it. Once I get past this week I'm sure once this week is over I will have much more confidence in my abilities to write proofs, but until then it seems I have a lot of work ahead of me.
